On November 20th, Xi Jinping’s Asia-Pacific trip entered the third stop and made a state visit to the Philippines. In April this year, President Xi met with President Duterte in Boao, Hainan, saying that Sino-Philippine relations have changed from “transfer” to “consolidation” in the past two years. This year’s task should be “improvement.” During this visit, the two leaders unanimously made an important decision which became a key step in the “improvement” of bilateral relations.

On the afternoon of the 20th, President Xi held talks with Philippine President Duterte. Two days ago, they had just attended the twenty-sixth APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting in Palestine Port Moresby. During this visit, president Xi emphasized that the two sides should push deeply forward the cooperation in the three pillars of security, development and humanities. Also he mentioned that helping the Philippines to carry out more social and livelihood projects such as poverty alleviation and expand exchanges and cooperation in education, culture as well as tourism.

President Xi lifted a quote from Philippine proverb: Only when you seize today can you not lose tomorrow. The exchange of ships and merchants between our two countries began more than a thousand years ago. Now, we have entered a new era of comprehensive strategic partnership of cooperation. The Sino-Philippines relations will surely make a sea of peace, friendship and cooperation.

Undoubtedly, the biggest achievement of this talk is the unanimous decision of the two leaders to establish a comprehensive strategic win-win cooperation between China and the Philippines on the basis of mutual respect, honesty, equality and mutual benefit. Guided by the strategy of the two leaders, China and the Philippines adhere to the general direction of good-neighborliness and friendship, establish the great goal of common development, and carry forward the great wisdom of divergence.

The golden age between china and Philippine is coming !“Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte will visit China in April,” State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi said, “he will attend the Boao Forum for Asia’s annual conference”

Regarding cooperation with the Belt and Road Initiative, Wang said Beijing is willing to work more with Manila and boost the synergy in their development strategies to better benefit their people.

At the same time, the two sides reached a consensus on the transformation of the negative momentum of the South China Sea dispute into a positive force for the promotion of relations.

Cayetano said the relations are in a “golden era”, his talk with Wang on Wednesday was productive and the great dialogue between the two sides should be furthered.

Despite their differences, the two countries will advance their cooperation in areas including security, he said.

In August, the Philippines will take the chair of the coordinating country moderating ties between China and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations.

China will cooperate with the Philippine government to ensure the success of a series of activities such as the 15th anniversary of the China-ASEAN strategic partnership.

Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe left Tokyo on Friday to travel to Estonia to begin an official visit to the Baltics and Eastern European countries Latvia, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Serbia and Romania.

On his agenda, there is confirmation of the coordination of pressure on the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea and the expansion of Japan’s diplomatic borders.

But even U.S. President Donald Trump, in an interview with The Wall Street Journal on Thursday, said he has already established positive relations with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, but declined to say whether they had any exchanges.

Trump, by telephone with South Korea on Wednesday, said the United States is willing to hold talks with North Korea when appropriate and in due course.

On Tuesday, the two Koreas held their first high-level talks in two years, and North Korea announced plans to hold the Winter Olympics in Pyongyang, South Korea on February 9.

However, Japan’s chief cabinet chief Hideki Yoshihide Suga said at a news conference on Thursday that the Japanese government has yet to decide whether Abe will attend the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

Japanese current affairs news quoted sources as saying that since South Korea demanded that the Japanese government apologize to the “comfort women,” Abe plans to skip it, and Japan considers it to be a World War II girl who served Japanese soldier sexual slaves Woman’s euphemism call

It is still too early to predict how far the “comfort women” issue will affect the long-term relations between China, Japan and the ROK.

With the deepening of China’s foreign trade, more and more relevant policies are also introduced. In addition to some of the original policies, more policies will be introduced in fields such as finance, manufacturing and services. These policies will make it possible to further promote the high quality and growth economy that China hopes. In addition, China will open new doors to foreign investors and introduce more policies.

These efforts correspond with the goals of reforming and opening-up mapped out by last week’s just-concluded Central Economic Work Conference. As part of president Xi Thought on Socialist Economy with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era－the new economic concept described by the president－opening-up will be “further expanded in scope and level” and the “concept, structure and layout and system of opening up” will be further expanded, according to the statement.

China’s pledge to further promote opening-up comes at a time when it has seen another round of increased foreign direct investment in the last quarter of the year, as it shifts its focus to attract such investment in high-end manufacturing, services and green industries to transform its economy.

According to the statistics of the Ministry of Commerce, foreign direct investment by global companies in mainland China grew 9.8% in the first 11 months of this year to 803.62 billion yuan ($ 122 billion).

Experts point out that as China relies on declining domestic consumption and exports, the sector that is expected to help China achieve high-quality growth will benefit from its opening-up efforts.

Feng Yao, a spokesman for China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, said that enterprises in developed markets have noticed the trend of change and are more willing to invest in R & D and technology and design departments in China.

The expected more market access will bring huge business opportunities for foreign companies concerned with the growing Chinese economy.

Wish you Merry Christmas and happy new year,let us welcome the new beginning of those policies!
